The Crafty Pedal
Please visit our Care Package page to support our 2021 food and toy drive.
Due to the Coronavirus pandemic we are only open by appointment and offering FREE basic bike tune ups to help riders keep riding. Streets have less car traffic so it should be easier and safer to share the road with automobiles. I believe people run a lower risk on contracting any infections while cycling as opposed to public transportation, but please don’t quote us. To help commuters stay safe we encourage commuting via bike. if your bike is down, we can get you back on the road.
Contact us if you need your bike worked on. Stay safe!
Since 2014, The Crafty Pedal is a full-service lifestyle and arts boutique, fusing together sustainable fashion, art and cycling. Each project is custom tailored to the individual needs of each customer.
TUNE UPS, REPAIRS, RESTORATIONS, CUSTOM UPGRADES
Bike been sitting in the barn? We can revive it.
Hit a pothole and are walking your flats now? We are open late & on call to get you rolling again.
Need a minor or major tune up or can't find that rare part for your bike? We love a challenge. If we don't have it, our on and offsite specialists can find it or make it. Oddities and cool rarities are our specialty.
A bicycle as unique as you.
We love vintage, and the craftsmanship and elegance behind the nostalgia. But don't get us wrong, we also appreciate new and innovative modern designs. At The Crafty Pedal we offer the best of both worlds, integrating classic vintage charm with modern day durability, performance and comfort.
We love "nice things", but we understand nice things don't come cheap. By offering reclaimed high end brands, we make owning a nice bike obtainable. To make things even better, every bicycle we sell is uniquely one of a kind and custom built to your specifications at a fraction of the cost of most other cycling shops.

Cycling is possibly the greatest and most pleasurable form of transport ever invented. It’s like walking only with one-tenth of the effort. Ride through a city and you can understand its geography in a way that no motorist, contained by one-way signs and traffic jams, will ever be able to. You can whiz from one side to the other in minutes. You can overtake £250,000 sports cars that are going nowhere fast. You can park pretty much anywhere. It truly is one of the greatest feelings of freedom once can have in a metropolitan environment. It’s amazing you can feel this free in a modern city.”
